Dr. Mehmet Oz, President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), has a mandate from Trump to “take on the illness industrial complex” and to cut costs.
Oz, a heart surgeon and former director of the Cardiovascular Institute at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center, is best known for his long-running television series “The Dr. Oz Show.”
He was controversial in medical circles for frequently promoting products on his show and making claims about untested and controversial treatments, including for obesity. It was in that role that in 2014 he testified before a Senate subcommittee about deceptive advertising and fraudulent claims in the weight-loss industry. In 2022, he ran for U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania on the Republican ticket and an anti-abortion platform, against Democrat John Fetterman, and lost.
